OLIVETO, Lía Guillermina y VENTURA, Beatriz N.. THE END OF LEDESMA VALDERRAMA ’S CHACO SETTLER EXPEDITIONIN1631. ANALYSIS AND NEWPERSPECTIVES FROM UNPUBLISHED SOURCES. Relaciones [online]. 2017, vol.42, n.2, pp.1-10. ISSN 0325-2221.
This paper analyzes and transcribes a Letter and a Memorial of Martín de Ledesma Valderrama, written in 1631 in the context ofthe abandonment ofthe city of Santiago de Guadalcázar, founded by him in 1625 in the Chaco. These unpublished documents refer to the advantages of the foundation of the city and to the actions for the reducción (concentration) of the local native populations. Also, populations of churumatas and "ingas del Cuzco" are recorded in the eastern valleys of the mountain range of the chichas. The causes that led to the flight of the Chaco are presented as well. The interpretation of these documents is made in the light of and interacting with the known documental corpus, the cartography of the 17th Century and the archaeology. By using this relational approach, new interpretations about the early brief occupations of the Chaco are presented.
